memories ... he he
once at the kh I was getting out of my car. Opened the door and well, a passing truck driver honked and yelled something in appreciation. An elder saw it and chastised me. he he. memories.

I find it odd too that this story has just disappeared. There must be some influential people involved in keeping this out of the press. I know it is very common for jws to disown a person if they disgrace Jehovah in a big way. And that is all these miserable people are thinking- this poor man disgraced Jehovah. He was just mentally ill. Oh well .
I throughly expected to see Fox giving it some coverage or CNN, but Nada. But you know murder and suicide, bombing , school shooting, etc, all so common in our world now.
Things do get covered up, i recall a 3x child molester in Walmart arrested who was active jws and it got buried despite attempts to get the story out.
If we want this story we need a credible person to talk to that reporter, and seeker4 seems to be that person. i think Barbara
Anderson is a very excellent resource as is Bill Bowen.
I hope that there are people "on" this . Sometimes there is and it just cannot be talked about on an open board b/c you know the jws do read this broad.
Say a prayer for this poor man and his family. Maybe the xjw community can bring some justice to this man and his family.

I gave up being joyful, I just was not. Once while out in service on a Saturday I saw a "householder" washing her car. I told her I wished i was home doing the same. I just stopped faking how I felt & it all just came bubbling forth from my mouth.

I have been watching Fox this weekend for any news about it and have not heard anything. The tragedy in TN
, the Church shooting has overshadowed it all.

i can't edit the last post so I'm putting it here. the song i was first thinking about is this one
THE FUTURE AIN'T WHAT IT USED TO BE
The best version is the original one, by Pandora's box. great simply great
http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=q7Y8AKEDV0I&feature=related
lyrics
I never knew so many bad times
Could follow me so mercilessly
It's almost surreal
All the pain that I feel
The future ain't what it used to be
It doesn't matter what they're thinking
It doesn't matter what they're thinking of me
It's always so cold
I'm to young to be old
The future ain't what it used to be
Were there ever any stars in the sky
Did the sun ever shine so bright?
Do you have any dreams I could borrow
Just to get me through the lonely night?
Is there anything left to hold on to
When the rivers wash it all away?
Is there anyone left to hold on to
Is there anything left I can say?
Say a prayer for the falling angels
Stem the tide of the rising waters
Toll a bell for the broken hearted
Burn a torch for your sons and daughters
The endless night has got a hold of me
Dark days are pulling me forward
And all the tears are washing over me
I'm crying, lost foreverIn a future that ain't what it used to be
No more no more no more
It's like a storm that's never ending
It's like a shadow on the land and the sea
There's nothing as sad as
A tomorrow gone bad
The future ain't what it used to be
Some days I feel so numb and empty
And those would be the good days for me
Nothing gets to me now
Unless I'm thinking of how
The future ain't what it used to be
Is there anything left to hold on to
When the rivers wash it all away?
Is there anyone left to hold on to
Is there anything left I can say?
Say a prayer for the falling angels
Stem the tide of the rising waters
Toll a bell for the broken hearted
Burn a torch for your sons and daughters
The endless night has got a hold of me
Dark days are pulling me forward
And all the tears are washing over me
I'm crying, lost forever
In a future that ain't what it used to be
No more no more no more
The future just ain't what it used to be
It's never gonna be like it was
The future just ain't what it used to be
I wish it wouldn't come but it does
I wish it wouldn't come but it always does -

No Journey it is a different song, but thanks for the you tube link . that was an excellent song.
here's the one i was talking about
TONIGHT IS WHAT IT MEANS TO BE YOUNG
JIM STEINMAN --WRITER, PERFORMED BY FIRE INC, 1984
chorus
let the revels begin
let the fire be started
we're dancing for the restless and the broken-hearted
let the revels begin
let the fire be started
we're dancing for the desperate and the broken-hearted
let the revels begin
let the fire be started ...(tonight is what it means to be young...)
we're dancing for the restless and the broken-hearted...(before you know it it's gone...)
let the revels begin
let the fire be started...(tonight is what it means to be young...)
we're dancing for the desperate and the broken-hearted...(before you know it it's gone...)
say a prayer in the darkness for the magic to come
no matter what it seams
tonight is what it means to be young
before you know it it's gone ...(tonight is what it means to be young...)
tonight is what it means to be young...(before you know it it's gone...)
before you know it it's gone -

Encourage all to go and comment. now is an excellent time to tell people who the wts is and what they are all about.
JWS are not a harmless org. They take lives in many ways.
This is tragic .
i recall a song that one line says
"... say a prayer for the broken hearted..."
a prayer for this poor man and whatever drove him to this.
